This generates high heat fluxes\, partially ‘melting’ the objects. Typically\, about 20% survive reentry and pose a risk to people on the ground; however\, the remaining 80% will stay in the upper atmosphere for some time\, leading to unwanted disruptions to the ozone layer and contributing to greenhouse gas effects. How can we solve this dilemma—putting people at risk or damaging the atmosphere?" \nProgramme \n\n\n06:00pm: Doors open \n06:30pm: Welcome address by Emmanuelle David\, Executive Director\, EPFL Space Center \n06:40pm: Presentation by Christophe Bonnal \n07:10pm: Round table moderated by the Science Journalist Olivier Dessibourg with: \n\nChristophe Bonnal\nDr Susmita Mohanty\nSpaceship Designer\, Serial Space Entrepreneur and Climate Action Advocate\nProf. Athanasios Nenes\nFull Professor\, Laboratory of Atmospheric Processes and their Impacts\, EPFL\nLiesbeth Casier\nLead\, Public Procurement and Sustainable Infrastructure and Coordinator of the NBI Global Resource Centre at the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD).\n\n07:40pm: Q&A moderated by Olivier Dessibourg \n8:00pm: Aperitif networking \n\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n	\n		\n\n			\n							Register here (free)
